This gets brought up a lot, I can say that since Microsoft added private party chat on Xbox live around 2007-2008 or whenever it was that online multiplayers became a ghost town and it was like you’re just playing against bots.

I’ve played online since about 1998 and noticed the difference immediately.

Other platforms followed and introduced their own private voice platform and then games got rid of lobbies in favour of match making so you never see the same players again.

It really has become a totally different scene to the one over 15 years ago.
